Electronic Arts and Anchor Bay Entertainment have confirmed that Dead Space Aftermath will release on January 25, the same day as the game Dead Space 2. The animated production will tell the story of the USG O’Bannon and the four unlucky first-responders to the necromorph outbreak on the USG Ishimura.
The novel Dead Space Martyr has already released in Summer 2010, telling the backstory of the Church of Unitology and the origin of the Black Marker. The comic Dead Space: Salvage has also recently released, telling the story of scavengers who come across the abandoned Ishimura. EA hopes that these various ventures will build up the excitement for Dead Space fans before the game’s release.
